Celine Dion a better singer than Mariah Carey today.
Today, Celine would blow Mariah off the stage. Mariah has lost that once golden voice, her last few performances have been quite frankly embarrassing. Celine on the other hand is still incredible and has looked after her voice so well that she can sing exactly like she did all them years ago. Anyone agree?

I agree with the OP. I've always thought Celine has had a bad press for being unfashionable, marrying an old codger etc... but she's got an amazing voice and is still damn gorgeous.
Carey, on the other hand, has done a few decent pop songs, but for the most part she just seems like a white woman desperate for an "urban" audience. |

not really. its what she grew up on. she always wanted to create albums like daydream, e=mc2, but columbia wouldn't let her. have a read on it, her first husband was quite controlling.

Yes I do recall hearing about her ex-husband. I don't think Carey is terrible by any stretch, but she does very little for me, whereas Celine is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine and it's a shame she hasn't had any proper success over here in so long.
![]() yes, its been a while. great singer though. |

oh i get you
![]() yes, its been a while. great singer though. Still, presumably she still has major success in Canada, the US (and France?) so perhaps we're not such an important market for her and her label anymore? |

Love her or hate her, Celine rarely puts on a bad show in terms of vocal performance. Mariah has never been a big touring act since her voice is fragile and needs taking care of, or so she says. It's definitely not what it used to be but she can still sing far better than a lot of acts out there.

Anyhow, Celine's voice may well be in better shape than Mariah's these days but considering that she mimes in most of her live performances, I really couldn't say. In their primes, Mariah and Whitney were both better than Celine imo. |

But she isn't a 'white ' woman. Prehaps you should do some research before you make statments like these.

Yes fair enough, I wasn't aware of her father's ethnic origin, apologies for the mistake.

Celine is still rocking and very much looks after her voice which I have seen myself in past documentaries on her. Her voice is as amazing as her Golden days of her career. She is also a better performer by connecting with the audience. Mariah doesn't. Mariah is more of a singer than she is a performer.

The fact you even made this thread shows your insecurity. No one talks about Celine these days so you resort to using Mariah's name to get people talking.
Mariah has always and forever will be a better singer than Celine. |

Mariah has always and forever will be a better singer than Celine. and in fairness Celine has much more powerful vocals listen to a song like think twice and then without you no comparision really.

I prefer Mariah. The only Celine song I know is the Titanic one.

You prefer power, good for you but I prefer tone and imo Celine has one of the worst tones I've ever head. But Mariah has plenty of songs were she has sung with powerful vocals. They both shouldn't even be compared though anyways, as they are very different singers with their on style. If people want to talk about Celine make an appreciation thread. |

Celine is back in Vegas lipsyncing - good for her but like I said no one talks about her. I don't see any Mariah fans making threads such as "Mariah is more sucessfull than xyz" or "Mariah is a better singer than xyz".
